Hardest spot on your face to get a bbs?
So, I'm starting my second year of shaving with a straight razor. I shave every day with a straight. I still have one remaining spot that frustrates the heck out of me: the corners of my mouth. For me it's hard to shave, very sensitive to xtg or atg, oh, and did I mention, very prone to bleeding at even the slightest nick.
Please pardon if this has been discussed ad infinitum. You may simply direct me to the link, however my search showed no direct thread.
So, I wonder what are your tough spots, and how do you deal with them?
Absolutelyl, corner of 'me mouth!!
I am a perfectionist, which can be very, very painful in the hobby of wet shaving!! I do well on most of my face trying to meet the ever somewhat elusive BBS shave, even the so called fools pass [WTG/XTG/ATG] of the upper lip!! But the lower corners of my mouth, as you stated, one bloody bugger for me as well. All I can do is stretch in all directions and use the sharpest blade I can, it drives me ruddy nerves to jangles if when I'm done if I brush my hand accross my face in any direction and find stuble, even deep stuble that no ''Normal'' person would think to be criticle of I feel I"ve lost some how. I know I"M not alone in this, read about this type of obsession on this very blog many, many, many,.................many times. And yes, it can and does lead to an irritated face, but in the end, smooth and if done right, great smelling!! [blood and weepers be damed I say!]
Thanks for letting me vent, have a great G/day' and a
BBS every day!! tinkersd of SRP
